Chapter 83: Selling 20,000 tickets is too generous...
Chapter 83
When Lin Mujin heard that Zhu's friend wanted to buy the formula, she had no objection at all and just wanted to know the other party's price.
She was not stupid enough to not know the importance of the formula.
But making hot noodles is really not difficult. Professional chefs can replicate it almost immediately after watching and eating two bowls.
There are similar ones sold in the market now, but people still have to be polite and make some adjustments, so the taste is still a little different.
If it involves complex ingredients and multiple processes, she will definitely keep it tightly under wraps. She understands the difference between a long-term plan and a one-time deal.
Seeing she had no resistance, Sister Zhu smiled. "That woman is rich. She spent hundreds of thousands on a watch. You can have a good talk with her. Go to my room and make a phone call."
That means she doesn't participate in the price negotiation.
Lin Mujin also understood that this small business deal didn't need to be discussed face to face.
At least in the eyes of that "rich woman", it is a small business.
"Go make a call now?" Lin Mujin glanced at the old furniture in front of her.
Sister Zhu pulled her aside, "No one wants it. It's so heavy. I'll watch over it for you by the window."
Since Sister Zhu said so, she had no choice but to agree.
Went into the house again.
Sister Zhu quickly dialed the number and exchanged a few pleasantries before handing the phone over. "Just call her Mrs. Zhang."
Lin Mujin took it and said politely, "Hello, Mrs. Zhang, I'm the owner of this stall."
The identity is given by oneself, so it is easier for both parties to negotiate.
"I heard from Sister Zhu that you really like the hot noodles at our stall. Thank you very much for your liking."
Praise your product first so that the other party will be more lenient when trying to lower the price.
"Thank you, thank you. Welcome back next time. If you want to buy the recipe, no problem. I can teach you how to make it."
She's very attentive, so bid high.
"You offer twenty thousand, fine. Do we need to sign a contract? Send a lawyer and a chef over tomorrow morning. No problem, no problem. I promise I won't hold anything back. Okay, okay."
Lin Mujin handed the phone to Sister Zhu again.
I will get 20,000 tomorrow, so happy!
After receiving the money, she gave 10,000 yuan to her family and kept 10,000 yuan for herself.
There will be another increase in the amount on the passbook.
Sister Zhu chatted with the other party for a few words and then hung up the phone.
"Thanks to Sister Zhu's help, my family has made some money again." Lin Mujin continued to flatter her.
The two walked out together.
Sister Zhu was a little curious, "I thought you would bargain."
Lin Mujin said honestly, "It's mainly because Mrs. Zhang was very generous and gave a high price directly. I can't ask for more."
Negotiating with different people requires different skills.
Previously, I had a negotiation with Editor-in-Chief Wang over the copyright of "Faded" and the price of the pen name. We negotiated bit by bit and it took several rounds.
But you can't do this with a rich lady like Mrs. Zhang. If you annoy her, the consequences will be serious. It is better to praise her. She will not ask for a low price directly. It is wise to quit while you are ahead.
Sister Zhu patted her shoulder with relief and said, "Mrs. Zhang and the Bo family are related. A good cooperation will benefit both parties."
Lin Mujin understood immediately, the Bo family was the shipping king of Asia, and was well-known.
"Sister Zhu, I've been bothering you for a while. I can go out by myself. I can bring everything back the second time." Lin Mujin refused to let Sister Zhu accompany her any longer.
Sister Zhu nodded and said, "Okay, come to me if you have any questions."
Lin Mujin expressed her sincere gratitude again.
She knew that without Sister Zhu's help, she might not be able to get the 20,000 yuan.
He took the initiative to help close the door, ran out of the yard, and checked the furniture. Nothing was missing, which was great.
Six or seven minutes later, Cousin Lin and Cousin Lin came again pushing the food cart.
The three of them hurriedly moved the furniture upstairs.
On the way, Lin Mujin told Mrs. Zhang about the 20,000 yuan she spent on buying the hot noodle recipe, and also told her why she wanted to sell it.
Cousin Lin also calmed down from her excitement, "Sister, you are right. Not selling it won't delay people from trying it out."
Cousin Lin asked, "Can we still go to Kowloon City tomorrow morning?"
Lin Mujin slapped her forehead in frustration, "I just said I forgot something."
Cousin Lin thought for a moment and said, "How about this, I'll call and tell them we'll be there at 2 p.m."
Lin Mujin asked, "Can the time be changed?"
Cousin Lin nodded. "It's OK. We have something important to do. We didn't stand you up on purpose. I'll buy you a pack of cigarettes later. It's okay. We have more time this afternoon, so we can buy two gas stoves and gas tanks."
Lin Mujin reminded, "Brother, how do we get it back?"
Gas stoves are fine, but gas tanks probably won’t be allowed on the bus.
Cousin Lin was really resourceful. "I'll get a rope and tie it to the back seat of the car. You can take the gas stove and take the bus."
Lin Mujin nodded, "Okay."
Cousin Lin interrupted, "What about the helpers?"
Cousin Lin, "Take the bus too."
Lin Mujin then said to her cousin, "Sister, a lawyer and a chef will be coming to our house tomorrow morning. Leave me some soaked rice and ingredients for making hot noodles. I'll demonstrate the entire process in front of them. I've already boasted that I'll teach them until they learn it."
Cousin Lin smiled and nodded, "Okay. But we don't have a steamer at home."
Lin Mujin thought for a moment and said, "It's okay. There are still some grocery stores open. I'll go buy a set. Otherwise, I won't be able to use them at home."
If one day you don’t want to eat rice and want to eat steamed buns or flower rolls, you can’t not make them just because you don’t have a steamer at home.
Cousin Lin added, "Go home and tell Li Xiuying that I'm worried about you being alone at home tomorrow, so ask her to accompany you to the reception."
Cousin Lin also said, "Safety first. If you want to make hot noodles, give her a bowl. We won't let her accompany us for nothing."
Lin Mujin glanced at her cousin Lin and said, "Okay."
She would also send a bowl to Mr. Feng downstairs. She owed him a bowl for more than a week, which was a bit too much, so she would give him another bowl.
There are already helpers here, why do we still have to wear white coats?
Let him soften his words first.
Cousin Lin said, "I can push the cart myself. You two go buy the steamer baskets. We'll be closed any later."
Lin Mujin looked at the time and it was true.
He reminded me, "Brother, wait for us downstairs, and we'll move together when the time comes."
Cousin Lin urged, "Hurry up, hurry up."
Lin Mujin and her cousin Lin ran away hand in hand.
With a clear goal, head straight to the grocery store.
Cousin Lin bought it before and asked the boss for a lower price directly.
The boss agreed reluctantly.
Bought three more layers.
That’s not all. Lin Mujin and I picked out two sets of bowls and chopsticks, two plates, two large bowls and two iron pots.
Cousin Lin knew at first glance that this was bought for the helper.
"Sister, you are very attentive."
Lin Mujin said, "Even though food and accommodation are provided, it doesn't mean we have to eat together. The dining table at home is so small, and it won't be crowded with two people. They will feel constrained and it will be difficult for us to speak freely. So it's best to eat separately, which is convenient for everyone. And the food doesn't mean they have to eat the same as us. It's good enough if they can guarantee one meat and one vegetable for lunch and dinner."
Cousin Lin said as a matter of course, "That's good enough. We are definitely conscientious bosses."
